Reefing newb
I've got a 45 gallon cube predrilled. Picked up an aquarium life support systems p1000 sump, a return pump, a good power head. The sump has bioballs and a floss pre filter so I may change to something different below the pre filter. I've filled everything with half saltwater from tanks at the lfs and half premixed. I have 40 lbs of Fiji pink live sand and about 10 lbs of rock, w more coming Friday. I turned the sump on and kept getting a slurping sound even though the drain 90 has a breather tube in it. The only info I found in a search concerned overflow boxes and I don't have one of those. I've left the sump, w just water in it to the water level line until the water in the main tank settles. How do I get rid of the sound, when I add water it just fills up the sump too high and doesn't make the sound go away. I'm sure this a newb question but if someone doesn't mind could you help me out? Other than that am I off to a decent start?
